I own a USB 3.0 Mobile SATA RAID System from Lindy that runs on a Kubuntu Linux. From the beginning it works fine.

The Problem: The RAID-Drive-state switched to "read-only" since I flipped of one of the two hdd and put a third one in (for storing the flipped hdd at a another place).

The 2 blue LEDs are glowing permanent now. Is this the sync-process (writing the full hdd data to the new one)? Is the state always "read only" on sync-process? How long may a sync (1TB) continue? Several hours?

Is it OK to flip the hdd when its under power? Do I have to unmount it first?

Thanks in advance,

Homer
